ANTR 350 Lecture 1 Outline of Last Lecture I. N/AOutline of Current Lecture I. Introductory topics in anatomyII. Level of human structural organizationIII. Anatomical terminologyIV. Standard anatomical planesCurrent Lecturemicroscopic anatomy: aka fine anatomy; cannot see with the eye- cytology: study of cells- histology: study of tissues- pathology: histology of diseased tissues- is limited by equipment usedgross anatomy- surface anatomy: superficial anatomical markings- regional anatomy: all structures within a specific body region- systemic anatomy: covered in this course; anatomy by body systemother perspectives on anatomy: - developmental anatomy: structural changes over a lifetime- embryology: developmental anatomy within the first trimester- comparative anatomy: comparisons with other animals- clinical anatomy: changes during disease- radiographic anatomy: noninvasive imaging- surgical anatomy: landmarks and surgical approachesANTR350 mostly covers systemic anatomy, with some clinical, regional, and surface anatomylevel of human structural organizationcells tissues organs organ systemsanatomical terminologyThese notes represent a detailed interpretation of the professor’s lecture. GradeBuddy is best used as a supplement to your own notes, not as a substitute.- the anatomic position: body erect, eyes forward, upper limbs and hands to the side with palms facing forward (so that forearm bones, radius and ulna, are uncrossed or supinated), fingers extended and thumbs pointing out to the side, feet are flat with toes pointed forward- left vs right is always from the patient’s perspective- other anatomical positionso decubitus: radiological term for a patient lying on a gurney during an imaging procedureo supine: lying face up; dorsal decubituso prone: lying face down; ventral decubitusstandard anatomical planes1. Sagittal plane- any plane that divides the whole body or sub-volume of the body into left and right portions- parallel to the long axis of the body- median/midsagittal plane: the single sagittal plane that divides the body into equal left and right halves- parasagittal plane: any sagittal plane other than the midsagittal plane, divides body into unequal halves2. Frontal plane (coronal plane)- any plane that divides the whole body or sub-volume of the body into anterior and posterior portions- parallel to the long axis of the body3. Horizontal plane- any plane that divides the whole body or sub-volume of the body into superior and inferior portions- parallel to the horizon- transverse/cross-sectional plane: cuts perpendicular to the long axis of the body- oblique plane: any plane that is not parallel to any standard anatomical
